Brooklyn Bridge Arches
$1,200 – watercolor – 15" x 11" unframed
Plus sales tax and/or shipping
The Brooklyn Bridge opened in 1883 and was an engineering marvel of its day. People from around the world come to see it, photograph it, and walk across it. Movies are filmed of and on it, and celebrations center around its iconic towers.
I often walk along the East River on my way to and from the South Street Seaport. I always stop to marvel at the bridge, especially when it is lit. I Found this lighting design inspiring. – N.R.

Summer Sunrise
$1,800 – watercolor – 15" x 11" unframed
Plus sales tax and/or shipping
The Brooklyn Bridge between lower Manhattan and Brooklyn Heights spans the East River at the narrowest point between the two land masses. The bridge seen beyond it is the Manhattan Bridge, opened in 1909.
For many years, my studio at the Seaport overlooked the East River and the three downtown bridges. Dawn was often a glorious event, especially in the fall. Here I tried to get the intense glow of the sun as it rises behind the still-dark tow of the Brooklyn Bridge.– N.R.

The Electrician
$1,100 – watercolor – 15" x 11" unframed
Plus sales tax and/or shipping
An electrician works in a cramped space festooned with colorful wires. I thought the light effect of the bare bulbs overhead, highlighting the wires, made an interesting composition. – N.R.

View from Nassau Street
$3,000 – watercolor – 22" x 15" unframed
Plus sales tax and/or shipping
This street in the financial district is hilly, and runs toward Broad and Wall streets. The New York Stock Exchange, with flags fluttering, is at the bottom of a hill, so the lower part is not visible in this view. The massive Federal Reserve building is on the left.
The financial district in lower Manhattan has a particular feel not found in other parts of New York City. With tall buildings crowding narrow streets, one block can be in utter darkness, while the next is bathed in sparkling sunshine. – N.R.

View from the Palisades
$2,500 – watercolor – 15" x 22" unframed
Plus sales tax and/or shipping
The George Washington Bridge was the world’s longest suspension bridge when it opened in 1931. It spans the Hudson River between upper Manhattan and Fort Lee, NJ. It was originally designed to be sheathed in granite, but with the onset of the Great Depression, the steel was left exposed. A lower level was added in 1962.
Fog softens the heft and rigidity of the bridge’s steel and allows me to better bring out the structure’s filigree-like forms. I intensified the fog effect to accentuate the red of the light house on the far shore. – N.R.

Wintry Crossing
SOLD
– watercolor – 20" x 14" unframed
I first painted a similar composition in 1995, with a more substantial rendering of the World Trade Center twin towers. After they were gone, I again painted the scene, treating the towers in a subtle, ghostly way. I was quite attached to the buildings, and often popped up to the observation desk, just to admire the splendor of New York City–after all, it was in my own back yard. – N.R.

Harlem River Bridges in Snow
$1,100 – watercolor – 11" x 15" unframed
Plus sales tax and/or shipping
I have walked the"Great Saunter" with the Shorewalkers group several times. This is a 32-mile trek around the rim of Manhattan on the first Saturday in May every year. After rounding the top of the island at Spuyten Duyvil from the Hudson River to the Harlem River, we walk under several bridges between upper Manhattan and the Bronx. Although the event is in May, I used artistic license and made this into a snow scene. – N.R.
